Date of publication: 1812 Edition: 1st ed. Number of volumes: 5 CAVA OF TOLEDO. A ROMANCE. Lane, Darling, and Co. Leadenhall-Street. CAVA OF TOLEDO; OR, The Gothic Princess. A ROMANCE. IN FIVE VOLUMES BY AUGUSTA AMELIA STUART, AUTHOR OF LUDOVICO’S TALE; THE ENGLISH BROTHERS; EXILE OF PORTUGAL, &c. &c. Fierce wars, and faithful loves, And truths severe, in fairy fiction drest. VOL. I. LONDON: PRINTED AT THE Minerva Press, FOR A. K. NEWMAN AND CO. LEADENHALL-STREET. 1812. PREFACE. THE author of the following sheets, struck by the account historians have given of the fall of the Gothic empire in Spain, took the story of Cava for the foundation of a romance: whether she has succeeded or not in rendering it interesting, must be left to her readers to judge. She thinks it, however, necessary to say she has not falsified history; all relating to the war is exact: the real characters she has endeavoured to delineate such as they were; —Rodrigo—count Julian—don Palayo—Abdalesis, the Moor—queen Egilone—Musa—and Tariff, are drawn as the Spanish history represents them. Cava was never heard of from her quitting Spain with her father; of course, her adventures, from that period, are the coinage of the author’s brain. The enchanted palace, which Rodrigo broke into, is mentioned in history. Her fictitious characters she has moulded to her own will; and has found it a much more difficult task than she expected, to write an historical romance, and adhere to the truth, while she endeavoured to embellish it. -

David Foster Wallace on the Good Life
10/31/2014Forthcoming in Freedom & Self: The Philosophy of David Foster Wallace 124 6 David Foster Wallace on the Good Life Nathan Ballantyne and Justin Tosi Dostoevsky wrote fiction about the stuff that’s really important. He wrote fiction about identity, moral value, death, will, sexual vs. spiritual love, greed, freedom, obsession, reason, faith, suicide. And he did it without ever reducing his characters to mouthpieces or his books to tracts. His concern was always what it is to be a human being—that is, how to be an actual person, someone whose life is informed by values and principles, instead of just an especially shrewd kind of self-preserving animal. —David Foster Wallace, “Joseph Frank’s Dostoevsky” David Foster Wallace thought that the point of writing fiction was to explore what it is to be a 1 human being. In this essay, we argue that his writings suggest a view about what philosophers would call the good life . Wallace’s perspective is subtle and worthy of attention. We’ll contrast what Wallace says with some popular positions from moral philosophy and contemporary culture. Wallace said much about ethical matters even though he didn’t write on them formally or systematically. How then shall we distill views from his writings? Our strategy is to present Wallace’s reactions, as found in his fiction and some essays, to three positions about the good life. We will ask what Wallace would make of those positions and thus try to triangulate his own view by reference to them. The first position we’ll explore is sometimes called ironism . -

Description of Grounds
Grounds of Marriage Nullity The following are the possible grounds that can be used in a marriage case before a Tribunal. There is a brief description and a list of questions relating to each ground. The judges decide each case solely on the basis of whether the grounds are proven by the testimony submitted by the parties, their witnesses, and expert consultants. If you are starting a marriage case with the Tribunal, the Case Assessor will help you to suggest or propose grounds for your case. If you have already started a case, or if you are a Respondent in a case, your Advocate can help you to understand the grounds. If you believe that one or more grounds may be applicable to your case, the questions will help you in selecting possible witnesses. Witnesses will be asked questions related to the ground or grounds used in the case. Every marriage case must have at least one ground. At the beginning of the process, the parties suggest possible grounds and explain in written statements why they believe those grounds apply to their case. After both parties have had the opportunity to do this, the Judges will set the actual ground or grounds for the case. The parties will be notified of the grounds. They may express their objections to the chosen grounds if they so choose, and the Judges may then reconsider. The Judges may select several grounds at the beginning of the case; the testimony of the parties and witnesses will determine which is the best ground on which to judge the case in the end. -
